Bird Friendly Glass
Location: Private Residence, Prince Edward County, ON
Description: Art glass window with exterior markers to prevent bird collisions
This detail of bird-friendly glass shows the exterior markers – which are made of text taken from an article titled “The Language of Light.”
My intention in this work was to create beautiful, meaningful glass that is both transparent and bird friendly.
Leaves of Light
Location: Life Sciences Building, York University, Toronto, ON
Description: Luminous Entryway Sculpture featuring LEDs powered by solar
At the entry of the Life Sciences Building, the collected energy from the solar cells (on the reverse side) switch on the LED integrated lights at dusk each evening. Gingko trees (featured in the artwork) survived the last Ice Age and are being studied in climate change research. Many gingko trees surround the Life Sciences Building.
